San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

As of 2 weeks ago, the launch ramp was completely under water and the road at the top of the ramp was under water in places. The dirt road north of the ramp is now mostly fish habitat. They're sending alot of water to San V but it was refilling faster than it was emptying. They've increased the rate ...

You're not that old...80 is the new 40.....or 79

Speaking of old....at least I know the difference between land and water. It was funny because when you came out of the water you asked "that other guy"(you know who you are) how did I get so wet? ha ha. Glad you are learning to use the Tokyo ...

You should see Mr. Vinnybass without a mask...they were doing us a favor....lol

I should of been there! I got some projects done around the house, but I should of been putting some bass in my boat! I can fish later in the week though. There are some monster redears in San V...when you can find them! Good job out there..I won't miss next Monday!

Who inspects the ducks, geese, and coots that frequent the lake? Quaggas will get there one way or another!

Don't know how this happened

But it must be a part of getting old.

Hey...speaking of old....Today is McFish's Birthday

HAPPY BIRTHDAY McFISH! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

He is old, but a heck of a great guy and fisherman.

oh yeah...my post is below ...ha ha

38 isn't old! Ok, maybe ...

Fluke time is coming up real quick!

It's a very strange year on the City lakes..everywhere feels like it's about a month behind normal...if there is a normal!

I got to the lake at sunrise, expecting to see the regulars out on the water already...but no, I was alone. That tells you how tough the fishing is and the high water has made launching and parking a real challenge. I keep expecting the lake to go off every week, but it's still not happening! I ...

Reminds me of the old days out there when there was alot more water! Miss those days! Hopefully they won't drain it all down stream!

San V is one of the few lakes that has been pretty consistent this spring! Good job getting on them! Weekends are about to change at San V, you won't be alone for long! Say hello to my little friend...the Wakeboarder!

Those redears have a bad attitude! They will attack fish way bigger than themselves this time of year! We need the bigger bass to move up now!

It's dangerous running across the street with a large screen TV...

Good job, I knew you'd get some with the overcast weather! If that was the short version of your story, I'm terrified to know the long version....hahahaha!

The cloudy water is going to protect alot of the spawners at many of the lakes this year..a good thing!

Very nice! I was getting concerned last week that spring was never going to happen on D.K.! I think when summer gets here, they'll be in the brush...if the City doesn't take all the water out first! I never thought of taking a photo while laying on my side!!!

Be careful taking advice from Vinnybass...before you know it, you'll be catching 6lbers!

Dropshot hint: hangs up less in the rocks and brush!

You can cut 1/4” surgical tubing to slide over your weight , it will pull off and you’ll get your weight back.
Good luck

I learned that surgical tubing trick fishing steelhead on the Klamath River!

It took San V an extra month to get going, but it's on now! What a difference 2 weeks makes...got there at sunrise 2 weeks ago, 6 boats..today at sunrise, more like 30! First cast, lost a 6lber in a bush..bad omen, nope! I got into a solid pattern and didn't move more than 100' for the next 5 hours ...
